  1. 1. Parzival Volume 2

    After realizing the ruin his earlier silence has caused, a young knight undertakes a long, penitent quest that tests his chivalry, faith, and compassion. He wanders through strange courts and combats, learns the truth of his lineage and meets a half-brother born of distant lands, and receives moral and spiritual instruction from a holy hermit. Through suffering, reconciliations, and hard-won wisdom he finally returns to the Grail court, asks the healing question he once withheld, restores the wounded king, and assumes the mantle of guardian of the miraculous vessel, completing a journey from naive youth to spiritually enlightened ruler.
